WANDERING STAR TRACK LIST
NEW ALBUM WANDERING STAR RELEASED TO
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
EXTENSIVE 2024 HEADLINE TOUR CONFIRMED
The song follows the band’s acclaimed new album, Wandering Star, which was released last month via Interscope Records—their first release in partnership with the label (stream/purchase here). Produced by Dwight A. Baker (Josh Abbott Band, Pat Green), Wandering Star is a collection of country anthems and thoughtful ballads that further elevate the band’s signature musicianship and vivid storytelling.
In celebration of the release, the band’s OurVinyl Session recently debuted, which features stripped down performances of four songs: “Spinnin’,” “Don’t Have to Do This Like That,” “Humble Folks” and “Only Thing At All.” Additionally, the official music video for album track, “The Provider,” premiered at Rolling Stone earlier this week. Watch/share HERE.
Critical acclaim for Wandering Star:
“a growing catalog of heartstring-tuggers and boot-tappers…on the brink of a mainstream country breakthrough”—Rolling Stone
“Their harmonies purvey a particularly conversational appeal”—Billboard
“They just don’t make them like Flatland Cavalry anymore…a collection of songs that feel timeless right out of the gate, warm and twangy with full-bodied arrangements”—No Depression
“groovy country-rock instrumentation”—American Songwriter
“One of the best bands in the business…a sound that is indisputably unique and distinctly their own”—Whiskey Riff
“a great album that shows off their incredible musical talent, with songs that feel like they’re going to sound brilliantly live and have a lovely timeless quality whilst featuring nods to modernity”—Entertainment Focus
“one of the brightest Texas country-folk bands…they worked their usual musical magic”
—Holler
“The Texas juggernauts once again showcase their tapestry of talent in their latest offering…powerful lyricism and brilliant melodies”—All Country News
“a band that’s found their niche and needs only do what they’re best at to prove their worth”
—Americana Highways
“The band creates infectious hooks”—Country Standard Time

Known for their electric live shows, Flatland Cavalry will continue to tour through next year including upcoming headline shows at Fort Worth’s Billy Bob’s (two nights), Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium, New York’s Irving Plaza, Boston’s House of Blues, Atlanta’s Buckhead Theatre, Athens’ Georgia Theatre (two nights), Minneapolis’ The Fillmore, Milwaukee’s The Rave and Charlotte’s Coyote Joe’s among many others. See below for complete tour itinerary.
Reflecting on the new album, Cordero shares, “Historically, all our albums have been named after a lyric that seems to most encapsulate the spirit and ethos of the project. Late one evening from my office in Nashville came the inspiration to name this record. My wife, who is from Oklahoma, acquired a piece of embroidered folk art which hangs on the wall of my office of a native man posed with Eagle wings. The art piece is untitled, but I imagined the subject being named ‘Dancing Eagle.’ Then I imagined ‘what would be my name if it were given to me in the same spirit?’… and the two words ‘Wandering Star’ floated to the surface; which happens to be a lyric in ‘Spinnin’.’ Naming our fourth LP Wandering Star felt right as we have been wandering around all of creation the last ten years, truth-seeking and dream-chasing; aiming for the moon and at last it seems we’ve found ourselves finally floating amongst the stars.”
Based in both Texas and Nashville, Flatland Cavalry is Cordero (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jason Albers (drums, percussion), Jonathan Saenz (bass, background vocals), Reid Dillon (electric guitar), Wesley Hall (fiddle) and Adam Gallegos (piano, organ, keys, mandolin, banjo, acoustic guitar, Wurlitzer, Mellotron).
Since their 2015 debut, Flatland Cavalry has released two EPs and three full-length studio albums, including 2021’s Welcome to Countryland. Of the record, The Wall Street Journal praised, “a clear musical point of view, original melodies, mature confidence in portraying romantic matters, and increasingly fresh, distinctive lyrics…a straightforward, upbeat electrified country-rock band,” while Rolling Stone declared, “Flatland Cavalry are promising to make days a little brighter wherever they go.” With the release, the band earned two #1 singles at Texas Country Radio (“Gettin’ By” and “A Cowboy Knows How”) and garnered over 290 million streams to date across platforms. Additionally, their track, “Mountain Song,” was also recently featured in the hit television series, “Yellowstone.” Known for their electric live performances, the band has toured relentlessly these past several years including numerous sold-out headline dates as well as shows with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, Midland and more.
